I am extremely happy that the SCI Fidelity team showed such enthusiasm and support. We can only hope more artists will see the value.

Brewster and Jon:
Thank you for contacting Phish on behalf of the Internet Archive's
Etree Project. We realize your project does a public service and we
support your goal of providing universal access to global knowledge
However, we cannot grant permission at this time to copy, compile and
distribute recordings of every concert performed by Phish or related
band member projects. Your ambitious goal of unlimited distribution
of those files as public domain works is not compatible with Phish's
current goal of providing and distributing recordings of the concerts
for commercial use. Audio recordings of Phish performances are not
public domain works but rather are owned exclusively by the band.
Our taping policy grants a limited temporary license to fans to share
those files in a purely non-commerical manner directly with friends.
That policy initially anticipated a person-to-person exchange of
tapes and was later expanded to cd's and most recently audio files.
It does not extend to copying those performances into a mass library
of titles considered by their providers and users to be public domain
works for unlimited universe-wide free distribution.
Further, we are in the process of formulating new and exciting
methods of providing those same recordings online in an official form
directly to our fans. The difficulty of enforcing our rights to
those official recordings in the fast-changing digital world would be
complicated by blanket permission to Internet Archive's Etree Project
to include those files at will as part of a universal free library.
While we leave open the possibility of working with you in the
future, we must request that Phish and band member projects not be
included at this time. Thanks again for your interest and best of
luck with your project.
Yours truly,
--Kevin Shapiro, Dionysian Productions

Meanwhile Phish fans could just check out Raq while they're here. :)
